  1. There is also feature to turn off all signature info. Alternatively, I took my maps off my signature because they were so big. I'm not sure if anyone cares that I've camped in 48 contiguous states, Alaska, and most of Canada, etc.
  2. Yes, of course. I have an induction cooktop at home, and I love it. But, for us, power is always an issue, as we rarely have hookups. 2008 Elite shorty, two 105 amp hour agm batteries. No inverter. So, an induction burner isn't a possibility for us.
  3. You may want to read through this related old thread.
  4. If the mounting board is wood, I agree, epoxy is the best (and very permanent) solution. At least, it should be. We use it often to bond wood to fiberglass in the trailer, and the boat. Epoxy fills the pores, provides a complete seal, and is often used in marine applications, wood to fiberglass. 5200 will work. It's a pain to remove, but possible with solvents and mechanical work. Inverters can be very heavy. I'd want a wood mounting board, personally.
  5. Snomad, is the mounting board wood or plastic/hdpe? And, welcome to the forum.
  6. Sorry, but I didn't personally find that "snarky" at all. Just another opinion. It looks nice, and fits in your basket. I can find the same container at my locally owned Ace for $11 less, and, I do try to support my local store. I so often find them helpful, and handy. But, I, too, spend quite a bit on Amazon. It just depends. Shipping cost can sometimes really drive up the price on bulky items at Amazon, and even some of the big box stores.
  7. Dealing with anti-gravity
  8. Trojan has been the "standard" to be measured against for a long time. Not sure if that's really true anymore.. But from my research, I'd have zero hesitancy buying Brightway, if I were replacing today. (I'm not.)
  9. Agreed. For those of us with BlueSky equipment, Ryan is a wonderful resource. Very thorough, professional, and patient. Watching the videos in the learning center is a great start, giving you some background before you talk to Ryan.
  10. Garage door lube works well, too.
  11. Galway girl has a really extensive list. It's a good thing to look through, but I'm sure they'd agree, not everyone needs all that stuff. Everything depends on your camping style, and how you can use what you already have. I encourage people to get the minimum, camp a few times, and then add to the collection. As they go.
  12. I, personally, dislike silicon . But, that's a personal thing. Any decent bathroom sealant will give you a decent seal for the vanity. I personally prefer polyurethane, interior . No reason to go with uv 4000 in the bath. Imo. John's suggestion on the plastic blade is a good one.
  13. A little silicon spray helps. It's a small price to pay, imo, for the extra step. Our original step was one step. The double step makes my life so much easier. No step stool needed in awkward high steps.
  14. At the ISS
  15. 240 more satellites this month. I've read that an app is in the works to move your service address. Baby steps towards mobile service? https://www.cnet.com/google-amp/news/spacex-completes-four-starlink-launches-in-a-single-month/
  16. Terrified rodeo clown
  17. I've mentioned this several times, but definitely the "easiest " I can think of. Many SoB trailers drain bath sink to the black. Relatively easy plumbing retro in an Ollie.
  18. Then , you don't even need to worry about his process . I'm interested in more detail, as well.
  19. Jordanv, did you get the composting toilet?
  20. Looks like a nice chair. I personally like the folding chairs with runners as opposed to feet that dig into the ground, like this one. We have a few from Aldi that fold down very compact, with a small side table. Another few with side tables, not so compact. We have mana bear and papa bear sizes, and, like BoB, way too many chairs...
  21. You and your boys are making memories that will last a lifetime. I'm really happy for all of you!
  22. Do you really have one, or is that an early April fool's joke?
  23. It's really a matter of preference. We've used the same smaller 5 x 7 or 8 mat for a dozen years, and another small rug or two in front of the steps. It's easier to clean and handle. 6 x 9 would also fit under the Elite awning, too. A number of places with grass sites don't allow rugs, at all, (they kill the grass) but will ignore a small walkoff mat at the door.
  24. If you haven't done so already, I would encourage you to open a service ticket on the home screen here. Even if you fix it yourself, Oliver should be made aware of it.
  25. You have to keep in mind that the Discovery isn't a full size suv. For a compact, it actually has a great towing capacity. Probably twice that of most in its class. Sadly, not quite enough to safely tow the Oliver Elite, because of the limited tongue weight. It could pair up with a number of lightweight teardrops though, and quite a few other options.
